FBI seeks motive after U.S. airline worker steals plane, crashes it

A Horizon Air ground service agent got into a Bombardier Q400 turboprop aircraft on Friday night in a maintenance area at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and took off, Horizon sister carrier Alaska Airlines said. Relatives and co-workers identified the man as Richard Russell of Sumner, Washington, who also went by the name Beebo. “He was a faithful husband, a loving son, and a good friend,” the Russell family said in a statement.
